Scartel Selects Bridgewater Systems for Mobile WiMAX

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Bridgewater Systems announced that it is providing Scartel with a WiMAX
service control solution to support IP services being offered over a
Mobile WiMAX network in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Scartel said it will deliver mobile Internet access with speeds of up
to 10 MB per second under the brand name Yota. By the end of 2008,
Scartel plans to ensure full coverage of these cities and some adjacent
areas in the region, with a total population of more than 20 million.

The Bridgewater service control solution will enable Scartel to support
subscriber management functions such as authentication, authorization
and accounting (AAA) services, and provide a platform to launch data
services over their WiMAX network, the groups noted.

"We selected Bridgewater Systems because they provide a vendor-neutral
solution that integrates easily with our existing WiMAX IP
infrastructure," said Dennis Sverdlov, CEO of Scartel. "They also bring
extensive experience in Mobile WiMAX from their numerous engagements
with major service providers and broad interoperability with a range of
network equipment vendor types."



Bridgewater is providing Scartel with a WiMAX service control solution
that includes a common subscriber data management solution to enable a
view of subscribers, and accelerate time to market for services.

Compliant with the WiMAX Forum's NWG Stage 3 specification, the
Bridgewater AAA Service Controller provides support for Mobile WiMAX,
such as support for multiple EAP methods, dual Radius/Diameter protocol
support, device and subscriber authentication, as well as mobile IP
support.
